Blade of Rime

My first mod.. I decided to do an animated weapon based off a combination of things.

===========================================================================================
Item added:

Rime

-2 handed shortsword with custom animation and sprite work

-secondary ability based off the solus katana's "Kunai Blast"
-costs 110 energy (up from 80. Still seemed too little. You regened all your energy before you could even use it again)
-1.8 second cooldown (reverted from 2.5. It felt too long after taking away the explosions)
-fires 5 projectiles in a downward fan, each dealing damage
-each shard, if it contacts a block, will leave an ice patch that deals minor damage and applies frost slow.
-most effective while jumping because the projectiles always fire in a downward fan in the faced direction

-requires 10 Ferozium bars, 15 Cryonic Extracts, 5 Solarium Stars, and 50 Snowflakes to make
-Crafted at Treasured Trophies in the Outpost

It's meant to be a mid/endgame weapon based more around quick attacks (since its a short sword, not a broad sword) and is far more effective against ground based enemies in my experience, because the alt fire always shoots 5 shards in a downward angle spray, so you must be above your target to hit them generally. The shards also leave a frost patch if they contact blocks, which does minor damage to anything that steps on them. I'm still working on this, so the amount of projectiles, damage, and energy cost might change if I get enough feedback from people who test it.

I did the sprite work based off a few basic sprites, and I'll most likely continue to work on it a little bit.

I would love feedback on the sprite, the weapon damage, and any other comments people may have! I am still trying to tweak the damage of both the blade and the shards, as well as the energy cost, so feeback on that would be great too!
